Cream Cheese Frosting
Cream cheese frosting is a sweetened spread made by blending softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and often butter, creating a tangy yet sweet flavor profile distinct from traditional buttercream. Its smooth, creamy texture makes it ideal for frosting dense baked goods like carrot cake or red velvet cake, though it remains softer at room temperature than butter-based icings. This frosting typically contains significant saturated fat and added sugars, while providing minimal protein or fiber.
